Reference Section (REF)

We have a reference section in both the LUX and SOL Library. Here you can find various subject-specific dictionaries and encyclopedias. The reference works may not be checked out; they are only for use in the respective library. At LUX Library, additional reference works, which cannot be checked out, are also located on other shelves. In the Asia Library all reference works are placed in our ordinary shelves together with the books you can borrow. You recognize reference works by their red sticker on the back.

Journals

The HT Libraries subscribe to both printed journals and ejournals. The latest issues of our printed journals are available at the Asia-, LUX- and SOL Library’s journal sections. The journals that are available electronically can be found via ePublications in LUBsearch.
